VZMORE has officially launched its Black Friday deals, starting on November 9 and running through November 13, with a discount on the AX9 Max bringing the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX-powered mini PC down from $1,499 to $1,270 — a $229 discount.

In the UK, the discount brings the AX9 Max down from £1,349 to £1,140 with discount code AX9NOTE209 on Amazon UK and the brand's online store. 

The VZMORE AX9 Max is a relatively compact mini PC, featuring an aluminium chassis measuring just 134.9 × 131.8 × 57.7 mm, but despite the small form factor, it packs quite a powerful mobile AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 APU that has 12 Zen 5 (4× Zen 5, 8× Zen 5c) CPU cores running at up to 5.2 GHz. This is paired with the AMD Radeon 890M, a 12 CU Radeon iGPU that is capable of performance similar to entry-level gaming GPUs in gaming scenarios. 

This not only makes the AX9 Max capable of lightweight gaming, but it also makes it a very capable content creation and compact workstation.

The mini PC comes with 32 GB of DDR5-5600 SODIMMs, upgradeable up to 256 GB, and a 1 TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 ×4 SSD, with room for another 2230 M.2 SSD for storage upgrades.
